러시아는 2024년 중 5번 하이마스 사거리 안에서 야외 병력집결 중 타격당함

[위종민]

러시아가 2024년 중 전선 근처 하이마스 사거리 안에서 훈련 등을 목적으로 병력을 집결시켰다가 하이마스에 두들겨 맞은 게 2024년 중 5번이라고 합니다. 

가장 최근은 지난 월요일 전선 근처 소총 사격장에 수 십 명이 모여있다가 우크라이나 드론에 관측된 후 M30/M31 로켓 2발에 타격당했다고 합니다. 첫 번째 미사일이 트럭을 때려서 폭발이 일어났고, 두 번째 탄약이 병사들을 타격했다고 하네요. 정확한 피해는 불명입니다. 

지난 2월 20일 전선에서 20마일 가량 떨어진 우크라이나 동부 트루디브스케의 러시아 39 독립근위차량소총여단 소속 2개 중대가 하이마스에 타격당해 여단장 G.무사예프 대령 포함 65명이 사망했다고 하네요. 그 다음날 드니프로 강 남쪽 20마일 가량 떨어진 올레스키 샌즈 국립자연공원에서 328 공습연대, 810 근위해군보병여단 및 81 자주포연대 2개 포대가 검열을 준비하다가 하이마스 공격을 받아 또 60명 가량이 전사했고요. 2월 27일엔 전선에서 8마일 가량 떨어진 올레니우카에서 155 해군보병여단 소속 해병대원들이 M30/M31 2발의 공격을 받아 대령 1명 및 장교 2명을 포함 19명이 전사하고 여단장 미하일 구드코프 대령이 부상을 당했다고 합니다. 

5월 1일엔 전선에서 60마일 떨어진 루한스크주 쿠반에서 집결한 수 백명의 러시아군을 목표로 ATACMS 4발을 발사해 그 중 1발이 불발되고 3발이 기폭됐다고 합니다. 확실하진 않아도 전원이 사망했을 수 있다고.. 

기갑이 아니라 중대급 보병부대를 표적으로도 하이마스를 잘 쏘네요

For the Fifth Time This Year, Russians Gathered Out in the Open Within Range of Ukraine's HIMARSWhat happened next was entirely predictable

For at least the fifth time this year, Russian troops gathered in large numbers, out in the open and in broad daylight, for training near the front line of Russia’s wider war on Ukraine—and within range of Ukraine’s American-made High-Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems.

On or just before Monday, seemingly dozens of Russians crowded together at what appeared to be a rifle range reportedly on the eastern front of the war. A Ukrainian drone observed the training—and at least two Ukrainian munitions, possibly M30/31 rockets packed with hundreds of thousands of tungsten balls, rained down.

The first munition struck a truck parked near the range, blowing it up and sending the trainees and their instructors running. A second munition exploded among the fleeing troops. It’s unclear how many Russians were killed or wounded.

But it is clear there’s a trend. Despite the obvious danger from the combination of surveillance drones and precision rockets—and despite several recent mass-casualty events—the Russians continue to conduct training and inspections near the front line.

On Feb. 20, a HIMARS strike targeted soldiers from the Russian army’s 39th Separate Guards Motor Rifle Brigade in Trudivs'ke in eastern Ukraine. Two companies of infantry had lined up along with their commander, Col. G. Musaev, so that Maj. Gen. Oleg Lvovich Moiseev, commander of the 29th Combined Arms Army, could address them.

Moiseev reportedly was en route when a Ukrainian drone arrived overhead, and a HIMARS opened fire. The front line is just 20 miles to the west, around Vuhledar. A HIMARS can lob M30/31 rockets as far as 57 miles.

Reportedly 65 soldiers died, including Musaev. “They lined them up in an open field,” one survivor groused as he recorded the carnage. “Fucking commanders.”

The next day, it happened again. Two separate formations from the Russian 328th Air Assault Regiment, 810th Guards Naval Infantry Brigade and 81st Self-Propelled Artillery Regiment assembled for an apparent inspection in the Oleshky Sands National Nature Park, in southern Ukraine 20 miles south of the Dnipro River.

A Ukrainian drone located them. Ukrainian artillery—perhaps HIMARS—took aim. Another 60 or so Russians reportedly died.

Six days later on Feb. 27, Russian marines from the 155th Naval Infantry Brigade gathered for an inspection in Olenivka, eight miles east of the front line in eastern Ukraine.

Two Ukrainian M30/31s streaked down. Reportedly 19 Russians died including a colonel and two other officers. The brigade commander, Col. Mikhail Gudkov, was wounded.

The Russians got as short reprieve. On May 1, hundreds of Russians assembled outside near Kuban, a settlement in Luhansk Oblast in eastern Ukraine, 60 miles from the front line.

As the Russians milled about in broad daylight and a Ukrainian drone observed from high overhead, a HIMARS battery fired four Army Tactical Missile System rockets—American-made precision-guided ballistic missiles that, depending on the model, range as far as 190 miles and scatter hundreds of grenade-size submunitions.

One ATACMS failed to explode. The other three popped open and scattered their lethal payloads. Each rocket turned an area as wide as 2.5 acres into a nearly inescapable kill zone. All 116 Russians may have died in the rain of submunitions, according to the Institute for the Study of War in Washington, D.C.

2024년 중 러시아군이 하이마스에 집결중인 병력을 타격당한 장소들

[Minowski(김유철)]

하이마스가 게임체인저는 되지 못했지만 그래도 공급된 이래 이만큼 꾸준히 전과를 내는 무기체계는 아마 없는 듯 합니다. 그나저나 대만에는 26년에 인도되는 것으로 알고있는데 가능한지 모르겠네요.

대만이 국산화를 할 것 같기도 합니다.
